CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application is based upon and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201510025759.X, filed Jan. 19, 2015, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to the technical field of data processing and, more particularly, to a method and an apparatus for processing handwriting data.

BACKGROUND

In the field of identity recognition and security authentication, biometric features are often used for identity recognition and security authentication. Handwriting recognition is a type of biometric feature recognition that determines whether two parts of handwriting data belong to handwriting of the same person by comparatively identifying the two parts of handwriting data using a computer mode recognition method. Since handwriting recognition has the advantage of relatively high level of security, it has been widely applied.

Conventionally, after a client terminal acquires handwriting data of a user, the acquired handwriting data is transmitted to a server through a network such that the server may perform corresponding processing. Due to the large volume of the handwriting data transmitted from the client terminal to the server, performing the handwriting recognition may take a great amount of network resources and consume substantial power of the user equipment in which the client terminal resides, thereby resulting in a degraded user experience.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Reference will now be made in detail to exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The following description refers to the accompanying drawings in which the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise represented. The implementations set forth in the following description of exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the invention. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with aspects related to the invention as recited in the appended claims.

Consistent with some embodiments of this disclosure, a method and an apparatus for processing handwriting data are provided. The method for processing handwriting data may be applied to a client terminal, where the client terminal is in data connection with a server through a network. The client terminal may be implemented in electronic equipment, such as desktop computers, laptop computers, mobile terminals (e.g., smart phones, non-smart mobile phones, tablet computers), and so on.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart of an exemplary method 100 for processing handwriting data, consistent with some embodiments of this disclosure. The exemplary method 100 may be performed by a client terminal. Referring to FIG. 1, the method 100 includes the following steps.

In step S101, the client terminal preprocesses handwriting data when the handwriting data is to be transmitted through a network. For example, in a scenario that a client terminal acquires handwriting data and uploads the acquired handwriting data to a server, the client terminal may acquire handwriting data and perform the preprocessing of handwriting data offline. The preprocessed handwriting data may be transmitted to a server when the client terminal is in data connection with the server through a network. As another example, in a scenario that the client terminal transmits the handwriting data through the network in response to a data request transmitted by the server, the client terminal may perform preprocessing to the handwriting data after receiving the data request transmitted by the server, so as to reduce the volume of data to be transmitted and the occupied network bandwidth. Various triggering conditions may be set to trigger the preprocessing of handwriting data, such as timed triggering, triggering under the request of the server, triggering while detecting connection with the network, which are not intended to be limited by the present disclosure.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of an exemplary method 200 for preprocessing handwriting data, consistent with some embodiments of this disclosure. The exemplary method 200 may be performed by a client terminal. Referring to FIG. 2, the method 200 includes the following steps.

In step S101A, the client terminal filters the acquired handwriting data to remove ineffective data points in the handwriting data.

In some embodiments, step S101A may include acquiring handwriting length of various sampling points of the handwriting data. When the handwriting length of the sampling point is greater than a second threshold or less than a third threshold, the client terminal may determine the sampling point as an ineffective point and remove the ineffective point from the handwriting data. The values of the second threshold and the third threshold may be preset by a handwriting recognition system.

To remove the redundant and ineffective data, the acquired handwriting data may be filtered in advance. For example, a misoperation of a user may cause the acquired handwriting data length to be too short, and some malicious operations of a user such as randomly scrawling may cause the handwriting data length to be too long. Therefore, by acquiring the handwriting length of each sampling point forming the handwriting data and determining whether the handwriting length of the sampling point is greater than the second threshold or less than the third threshold, the ineffective sampling point may be removed from the handwriting data.

In step S101B, the client terminal acquires the number of sampling points included in the handwriting data, and when the number of the sampling points exceeds a first threshold, the client terminal screens the handwriting data such that the number of the sampling points included in the screened handwriting data is not greater than the first threshold.

In order to reduce the data volume, the handwriting data may be screened and the number of the sampling points included in the handwriting data may be controlled to reduce the data volume. For example, when it is determined that the number of the sampling points included in the handwriting data is greater than the preset threshold, the handwriting data may be screened.

In some embodiments, screening the handwriting data may include the following steps. First, the client terminal may acquire a ratio of the number of the sampling points included in the handwriting data to the first threshold. Second, by taking the first sampling point as a current sampling point and using the ratio as a sampling interval, the client terminal may select sampling points closest to the current sampling point to perform handwriting resampling until the number of the acquired sampling points is equal to the first threshold.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of an exemplary method 300 for screening handwriting data, consistent with some embodiments of this disclosure. Referring to FIG. 3, the handwriting data containing 500 sampling points are screened into handwriting data containing 400 sampling points by using a trapezoid principle. As shown in FIG. 3, the lower base of the trapezoid is 500-point information, and the upper base of the trapezoid is 400-point information. The trapezoid principle is to take out 400 points of information from 500 points of information, and the specific screening rule is to obtain 400 sampling points closest to the sampling interval (500/400) from the lower base. For example, the client terminal may acquire a ratio of the number of the sampling points included in the handwriting data to the first threshold. In this example, the number of the sampling points included in the handwriting data is 500, the first threshold is 400, and the ratio is 500/400. Then by using the first sampling point as the current sampling point and using the ratio as the sampling interval, the client terminal may select the sampling points closest to the current sampling point to perform handwriting resampling until the number of the acquired sampling points is equal to the first threshold. For example, supposing that a horizontal coordinate of a first sampling point is 0, a horizontal coordinate of a second sampling point may be set as (0+500/400), a horizontal coordinate of a third sampling point may be set as (0+2*500/400), and a horizontal coordinate of an Nth sampling point may be set as (0+(N−1)*500/400), where N is equal to 400.

Referring back to FIG. 2, in step S101C, the client terminal acquires attribute information of the handwriting data and processes the attribute information based on a preset length.

In some embodiments, the attribute information of the handwriting data may include horizontal coordinate value X, longitudinal coordinate value Y, time attribute information T, and section attribute information S of handwriting data. For example, the attribute information of the handwriting data may be presented as (X, Y, T, S), where the time attribute information T may include the sampling time of the sampling point, and the section attribute information S may describe a section in which the current sampling point is located, e.g., a stroke in the handwriting data. The attribute information of the handwriting data may also include pressure attribute or other attributes. The handwriting recognition system may preset the length, type and naming rules of each piece of attribute information, so as to reduce the volume of the data included in the attribute information.

In some embodiments, the attribute information of the handwriting data may include time attribute information, and the method 200 may further include the following steps.

In step S104D (not shown), the client terminal may acquire time attribute information corresponding to each sampling point in the handwriting data according to the acquired time attribute information of the handwriting data. The client terminal may then acquire sampling time of each sampling point according to the time attribute information corresponding to each sampling point, and compute a difference value between the sampling time of a first sampling point and the sampling time of each sampling point. The client terminal may use the acquired difference value between the sampling time of each sampling point and the sampling time of the first sampling point as the time attribute information of each sampling point.

In some implementations, the time attribute implemented by the system may be in a long format and the length of a character string included therein is relatively long. In order to reduce data length, in some implementations, the time difference between other sampling points and the first sampling point may be used to represent the time attribute. Thereby, the data length may be effectively reduced. For example, supposing that the handwriting data includes three sampling points and the time attributes of the sampling points may be originally expressed as (14:11:18:09:25:30), (14:11:18:09:25:33) and (14:11:18:09:25:34). After the above-described processing, the time attributes of the sampling points may be expressed as (0s), (3s) and (4s). When the handwriting data includes more sampling points and the volume of the handwriting data is larger, the above-described processing may substantially reduce the data volume of the handwriting data. If the detailed sampling time of the sampling point needs to be obtained, the sampling time of the first sampling point may be recorded in other fields and may not need to be included in a sequence of points. The sampling time of other sampling points may be obtained by the sampling time of the first sampling point and the time difference between the sampling points and the first sampling point.

It is to be understood that steps S101A, S101B, S101C and S104D may be executed in sequence or in parallel, and the execution sequence between the steps may be inverted. In some implementations, the preprocessing operation of the attribute information may be performed after removing ineffective data points and performing screening to the handwriting data so as to reduce the volume of data to be processed.

Referring back to FIG. 1, in step S102, the client terminal transmits the preprocessed handwriting data through the network.

After the original handwriting data is preprocessed, the handwriting data may be compressed and then transmitted through the network for processing by a data receiving device. For example, the data receiving device may be a server.

In some embodiments, the method 100 may further include acquiring handwriting data and performing handwriting recognition. For example, the client terminal may acquire first handwriting data, acquire second handwriting data, and compare the second handwriting data with the first handwriting data to obtain a comparison result. When it is determined that the second handwriting data is matched with the first handwriting data according to the comparison result, the client terminal may determine that handwriting verification passes. Thus, a client terminal may preprocess handwriting data and perform handwriting recognition offline.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart of an exemplary method 400 for obtaining handwriting entry of a user, consistent with some embodiments of this disclosure. The exemplary method 400 may be performed by a client terminal. Referring to FIG. 4, the method 400 includes the following steps.

In step S401, the client terminal starts the process for obtaining handwriting entry of a user. In some embodiments, the client terminal may use the initially acquired handwriting data of a user as a login password or a verification password.

In step S402, the client terminal acquires handwriting from a user for two times.

In step S403, the client terminal determines whether the handwriting of the user is successfully acquired. If the handwriting is successfully acquired, the client terminal proceeds to perform step S404. If it is determined that the handwriting is not successfully acquired, the client terminal proceeds to step S402 to re-enter handwriting.

In step S404, the client terminal stores the acquired two handwriting passwords and enters a corresponding homepage.

In step S405, when the client terminal is connected with a server through a network, the client terminal transmits the preprocessed handwriting data to the server for encrypted backup. The step of preprocessing may be performed by referring to the method 100 shown in FIG. 1.

In the method 400, when the client terminal acquires the handwriting data of the user as the login password or verification password, the handwriting data acquired by the client terminal offline may be uploaded to the server for encrypted backup when the client terminal is connected with the network. The server may also use the received handwriting data to improve a handwriting algorithm, such as by establishing a handwriting recognition model through the acquired handwriting data of the user. Where the server needs to perform identity recognition or security authentication, the recognition of the handwriting data may be used as one of security factors of user identity recognition or security authentication.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of another exemplary method 500 for handwriting recognition, consistent with some embodiments of this disclosure. The exemplary method 500 may be performed by a client terminal. Referring to FIG. 5, the method 500 includes the following steps.

In step S501, the client terminal starts the handwriting recognition process.

In some implementations, when a user needs to log in, the client terminal requires the user to input handwriting to recognize whether the input handwriting is matched with the pre-stored handwriting password or not. If the input handwriting is matched with the pre-stored handwriting password, the user is permitted to log in.

In step S502, the client terminal acquires handwriting data. For example, the user may input the handwriting data according to a prompt of the client terminal.

In step S503, the client terminal locally performs handwriting verification and recognition.

For example, the client terminal may perform comparative recognition to the handwriting data input by the user with the handwriting password pre-stored in the client terminal offline to determine whether the handwriting belongs to the same person.

In step S504, the client terminal determines whether verification passes or not. If the verification passes, the client terminal proceeds to perform step S505. If the verification fails, the client terminal prompts the user to re-enter handwriting or exit.

In step S505, the client terminal permits the user to execute corresponding data operations, such as login and entering relevant pages.

In step S506, when the client terminal is connected with the server through the network, the client terminal transmits the preprocessed handwriting data to the server for encrypted backup. The step of preprocessing the handwriting data acquired in step S506 may be performed by referring to the method 100 shown in FIG. 1.

In the method 500, when the client terminal receives a data request of the user, such as a login request, the handwriting data of the user needs to be acquired and comparative recognition is performed with the pre-stored handwriting data to determine whether the handwriting belongs to the same person or not, so as to allow or decline the data request of the user. The recognition of the handwriting may be executed by the client terminal offline, and the produced operation record data, such as handwriting point sequence, handwriting comparison score, and user equipment information (including the type of equipment, the type of adopted operating system, etc.) may be uploaded to the server when the client terminal is connected with the network. The server may also use the received handwriting data to continuously improve a handwriting algorithm, such as by establishing a handwriting recognition model through the acquired handwriting data of the user. The server may also use the received data to statistically evaluate the accuracy rate of the algorithm or perform processing to the received data, and the recognition of the handwriting data may be used as a security factor of user identity recognition or security authentication.
